“The point of these exercises is to bring everyone together…it identifies who’s going to do what,” Shea said. “It’s so we’re not meeting each other for the first time at the scene.”

In a major snowstorm scenario played out yesterday, a blizzard warning is issued for Hudson County, and the National Weather Service predicts 20 to 30 inches of snow.

Water main breaks then interrupt water service to Newport Downtown, where the Super Bowl teams will be staying, and power outages affect various parts of the city.

A United Water official responds with backup water being provided within an hour and repair crews get to work on the breaks right away.

An official from the Department of Health and Human Services sets up warming stations for the homeless and coordinates with homeless shelters in the area.

In the terrorist scenario, two men are spotted jamming a suspicious package under a table at a restaurant at the Westin in Jersey City, where one of the Super Bowl teams is staying. They then quickly leave.

Authorities confirm the package is suspicious, the hotel is evacuated and a bomb squad gets on site within minutes to investigate. Security at the Hyatt, where the other Super Bowl team is staying, is increased.

In the meantime, the two men are tracked down by Port Authority police, where one is shot when he refuses to remove his hands from his jacket and the other is apprehended.

The FBI checks their cellphones to find who the men have been talking to; the bomb squad at the Westin finds out the package is a bomb and defuses it, and another man with a suspicious package is seen approaching the Hyatt and arrested.

A bomb squad finds out the second package is also a bomb, and the FBI, after realizing the attack has connections with Pakistan, works with Jersey City police and other law enforcement agencies to track down any other suspects and foil any other planned attacks.

After the two scenarios were played out, Shea said Jersey City is well-prepared for any emergency that might occur during the Super Bowl.
